Freeplay has released a video of the Pandora Unbricker/Downgrader the biggest and best release to ever hit the PSP Scene. every single PSP on all firmwares is now downgradeable and every PSP thats been bricked unbricked.
Without a shadow of a doubt the single biggest release in the PSP scene and maybe even homebrew, its that big a release.
More details on the release here
DIGG THIS NEWS - Let Every PSP Owner WORLDWIDE Know they can play Homebrew Now.
Heres the video
Great VĂ*deo!
woot!!!!! live live live!!!!!!!!!!
ahhh man sony must be peeing their pants right now xD
Hell yeahh!!!!
psp resurected X) brick no longer a problem homebrew wins the war 4 ever
I would like to know how sony would attack back now lol!!!
Sony just got screwed over bigger than the first Custom Firmware Release.
Homebrew Scene > Sony
im still having problems with the memory stick part
Sony iz screwed on bigger grounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSS
im guessing a psp slim recall or delay for a new design that doesnt work with the release
Great release!
Too bad it was leaked though, hopefully it will still work with the slim PSPs. Homebrew would be so much better with 32 more MB of ram.
if any1 can help me with unbricking please please please email me or chat on msn my addy is [email protected]
i cant get the apps to run under windows vista, i cant format the memory stick or anything im so sad
i just unbricked. yes! lol. time to put my firmware history down in my sig again.
please help me with unbricking please please please!!:(Quote:

Wow
If you think about it this is truly the pinnacle of the PSP hacking/homebrew scene. It feels like it's all been leading to something like this as there is now no barriers to who can use homebrew.
I doubt I'll ever need it as I never mess around with the flash of my PSP but it's a stunning release.
Sony must be hurting over this one for sure.
has anyone running vista got this to work? please reply
I still want to cry every time I think about the leak maybe ruining hopes for PSP Slim. However, I do agree that this is definitely one of the biggest and significant releases.
Seeing that Dark_AleX & Mathieulh were a part of this really makes sense. I found if really suspicious with the sudden withdrawal from the scene. I figured it was due to something big in the works. SONY said he was taking a hiatus. Well he took a hiatus all right. To help with this breakthrough release.
This certainly does feel like that last step up a mountain or a final victory in a long war. However, lets not forget that there are still projects like Daedalus underway and there is so much more possible with PSP homebrew.
I asked this on the other thread but I don't know if I'll find the answer scouring hundreds of pages. Because this can't totally restore IDStorage and this installs just a minimal 1.50 subset, can you install 3.52 M33-4 custom firmware on a PSP that has used this?
Also, does anyone know exactly when SONY is going to stop entirely manufacturing of the PSP (Phat)? Its been said that they were going to phase it out. I'm sure they have a million or so units in warehouses still waiting to be shippped to retailers.
Just curious when the PSP Phat will be officially done with and you won't be able to find any in retail stores.
Read my sig lolQuote:

This is too damn good to be true! Awesome Video!!! The release of the Pandora's Battery Unbricker would've been very helpful to me had it come out as early as January '07... but it's all cool.
Once again, still freakin' awesome!!!!
Go the 80's porn style BGM. :)
Try right clicking any exe files, going to properties and setting them to run as admin, seem to fix most vista compatibility problems. Not being able to format the memory stick is rather odd though...Quote:

EDIT: Should really add a huge thank you to team C&D for this, I don't need it at this stage (thankfully), but it's one huge gift to the community that will help so many people.
Those trying to profit from their work are scum at best, the more the news of this is spread the less they will be able to take advantage of lesser informed people.
open up my spoller.. :pQuote:

Then again I haven't tried Pandora's battery yet so I have no idea. Someone should try it. Whats the worst that can happen? You brick your psp, that you just unbricked? It's not much of a setback anymore.Quote:

The unbricker process restores a full v1.5 firmware to your PSP. The 'partial subset' just refers to the version of the firmware that it launches from the memory stick, in order to be able to flash the full software.Quote:

6. Act cool :cool: (Optional)
OKOKOK...So let me get this straight.
This will unbrick ANY PSP?
Did I read that right?
Am I wrong?

I can't wait to make my own personal "jigkick".
The GREAT NOOBS and C+D will surely find an exploit for the slim. And I am so confident in them, that I will get me a slim when it's released. But not before I help donate to the cause.:thumbup:
